One of the secrets of slapstick, for stance, is that a pratfall is rarely pals: s effects on the body are merely layed by the adrenal excement of live performance. Over the urse of more than a century of filmed gags, the worst rults of rporeal damage upon profsnal funnymen have been well documented. <a href=">Bter Keaton</a> broke a vertebra his neck while filmg a stunt for his silent masterpiece “Sherlock Jr.” <a href=">Jerry Lewis</a> blamed a spe-chippg tumble onstage for s of bilatg agony. Chevy Chase checked to Betty Ford, 1986, to al wh an addictn to analgics. It would seem that physil edians, like athlet and dancers, mt eventually pay a price for g their bodi as stments. “Jackass,” the nvulsively hilar MTV realy-prank anchise, which began as a h ble seri 2000 and expand s reach through a -pl of feature films, straight-to-DVD releas, and affiliated st-member projects, has achieved remarkable eage through s unwaverg mment to embracg this tth. Now much of the origal crew have renvened for a new theatril release, “Jackass Forever,” which banks on the digny of middle-aged men enactg new versns of the dangero and disgtg manvers of their long-ago youth.</p><p class="paywall">The “Jackass” formula of documentary edy has remaed nsistent sce the origal televisn show. Each stallment prents a seri of astonishgly ridiculo challeng, sometim ptured wh vert meras public spac, that a gang of gigglg bros flict upon themselv, the ultimate goal beg some outrageo spectacle of pa and huiatn. Th, for much of the early twenty-first century, the Jackassers spent their time dog thgs like nng after one other wh buzzg stun guns, ttle prods, and electric hair clippers; Jet-Skiig up a skate ramp and over a hillsi; eatg a snow ne ma wh ure; attachg a mcle stimulator to their genals; playg “dodge medice ball” the dark; and ridg a teeter-totter a roo rg wh an angry bull. At tim, their sh-eatg grs have not been metaphoril.</p><p class="paywall">The origal st emerged, the neteen-neti, out of the nudy-peppered unrground skateboardg magaze <em>Big Brother</em>, which featured wrten and photographed reports of generally ls elaborate but no ls stupid skater antics, and which eventually produced a seri of VHS tap featurg siar fare. One of the clus a notor segment which the L.A.-handsome Johnny Knoxville, then a wrer for the publitn, pepper-sprays his own ey, gets shocked by a Taser, and shoots himself pot-blank the cht while wearg a bulletproof vt. After that last enavor—which Knoxville draws out to an excciatg gree, clickg, Rsian roulette-style, through the empty chambers of the pistol—he is seen sg wildly the back seat of a r pg the scene. His T-shirt is smudged black om the impact, but his torso is apparently undamaged. “This crazy sh of adrenale shot through me,” Knoxville later attted, the 2017 documentary “Dumb: The Story of Big Brother,” addg that he was “so relieved that I jt didn’t die!"</p><p class="paywall">Unsurprisgly, the “Jackass” televisn show, which followed <em>Big Brother’s</em> footsteps, generated a great al of ntroversy s day. Although featured a disclaimer warng viewers not to attempt the actns that they were about to see onscreen, news ems began to claim that juvenile fans were mtg pyt stunts. A young generatn’s accs to mrrs might have been more to blame than any sgle televisn show. As the lennium approached, the wispread technology fuelled the rise of siarly transgrsive D.I.Y. forms, like back-yard wrtlg, amatr sex tap, and gonzo pornography, not to mentn the more domtited vlence of “Ameri’s Funnit Home Vios.” Related activi accelerated sharply wh the advent of Inter file sharg and streamg vio. This started as early as the heyday of Napster, when street-fight vios were already circulatg for a burgeong dience’s amement.</p><div class="Contaer-bkChBi byNLHx"></div><p class="paywall">Begng 2013—a few years after the “Jackass” gang had released s penultimate theatril film, the visually magnificent “Jackass 3D”—the prank-and-stunt format flourished on the vio-sharg app <a href=">Ve</a>. Viewers who might have gathered to gawk at “Jackass” on televisn stead traed their eyeballs upon er-generated platforms where accs to on-mera teen idcy had been radilly mocratized. The urge to rerd any views-worthy ntent, no matter how unwise, beme immortalized wh the slogan “Do for the Ve.” The go-gettg attu ntued past that platform’s <a href=">mise</a>, 2017, beg the basis for today’s supply of <a href=">YouTuber</a> antics and <a href=">TikTok</a> challeng.</p><p class="paywall">Sce a quick fix of physil edy is now available via anybody’s smartphone, the return of “Jackass” to the big screen foregrounds activi that only a Hollywood budget uld unrwre. Few social-media badass have the means, as the “Jackass Forever” producers do, of ployg jet bombers to ighten their pals, or hirg an éle blast technician to help them light farts unrwater. (The monumental stupidy of puttg big money and big tech behd the stunts mak the new film a kd of parodic image of the twenty-first-century tentpole movie.) But “Jackass Forever” don’t only have too much money gog for ; s stars also have years of practice hong a peculiarly masochistic craft ways that the anchise’s Zoomer spawn uld never. The director, Jeff Tremae, and the st and crew have mastered the art of stagg and drawg out a cel gag to s fullt promise. Some of the funnit bs offer dramatic buildups to expected vlence, trag the mera on the actors so as to showse their sweatg trepidatn and, once the experiment is well unr way, their pathetic beggg and pleadg for the game to stop. At moments like this, “Jackass” veers to the terrory of psychologil torture, like a edic versn of the Milgram experiment.</p><p class="paywall">“Jackass” n also embrace the pornographic and stologil ways that are far ls possible on the visually manicured platforms that domate the ntemporary Inter. Once released om ble-televisn advertisers, “Jackass” went explic and visceral, g the big screen to showse uncensored dicks, sh, semen, and vom. “Jackass Forever” provis more than a uple towerg closps of penis and tticl vered burgundy bis, as a kd of perverted fan service. This attu is faiar om <em>Big Brother</em>, but the magaze also featured hetero-iendly helpgs of naked women. The female prence “Jackass,” however, has always been mimal. (The cln “Jackass Forever” of a few scen wh the edian Rachel Wolfson marks a parture.) The rult is an atmosphere of tense homoeroticism, as palpable as that found any aterny, barracks, or locker room. “Jackass” now seems ahead of s time pictg a misf masculy that allows for a great al of shared nudy, bodily exploratn, and taboo btg, and the cln of meos over the years om the lik of John Waters and the late Rip Taylor brgs the ocsnal element of thentic gay mp.</p><div><div class="ConsumerMarketgUnThemedWrapper-iUTMTf jssHut nsumer-marketg-un nsumer-marketg-un--article-mid-ntent" role="prentatn" aria-hidn="te"><div class="nsumer-marketg-un__slot nsumer-marketg-un__slot--article-mid-ntent nsumer-marketg-un__slot---ntent"></div><div class="journey-un"></div></div></div><p class="paywall">The key to “Jackass” has always been s joyo visn of rilience the face of obv trmas. If the body keeps the sre, the guys should be rackg up world rerds—yet they typilly bounce back like children ma of bber. (Some of the lgh potential of the men’s advanced age “Jackass Forever” is unrcut by the fact that the bodi of Knoxville, Chris Ponti, Dave England, and Steve-O rema relatively athletic.) Seeg rtoon vlence enacted on real people allows the dience a potent taste of that adrenale sh which Knoxville felt after his self-shootg s ago: exhilaratg lghter follows the performers’ visible release om mortal danger. But now that man-boys have bee zaddi, wrkl and gray hair pepperg their unclad forms, “Jackass Forever” tempers this fantasy wh more footage of their stunts’ aftereffects, cludg a sequence which Knoxville is knocked out om a ncsn and shed to the hospal, emergg bandaged, a wheelchair. There’s also the qutn of who isn’t on screen. The st member Ryan Dunn died an alhol-related r accint more than a ago, and Bam Margera, who was central to the genis of the anchise, was exclud om the film for reasons that rema unclear but volve a rtrag orr issued agast him by Tremae. In 2022, survival through hellish absurdi is somethg that we’d all like to celebrate, even if lghg the face of mortaly might only ever provi temporary relief.</p></div></div></div><div
